The Pikler Institute

• Recently, somebody wrote about Lóczy
• in a thesis that, in this institute, she had
  the opportunity to get to know the art of paying
  attention to and respecting children. I think
  this is exactly what has kept me in the loyal
  service of the Piklerian principles for more than
  40 years.
